Washington Monument

We are not living in Orlando anymore. We are on the way to relocating to New York City, but in the process the family has been touring temporarily at Maryland, close to Washington DC. Some nights ago we were visiting the monuments in the National Mall. The obelisk looks bigger in person than in the photos I have seen. It was a delightful summer night, with a clear sky and a soft breeze touching our faces. I took this picture at base of the obelisk, trying to capture the impressive perspective and the strength of this monument. If you look carefully you can make out some stars in the sky that night.
